“Well I can see him comin’ so you better start a runnin’ right now”

Hey la, hey la!

Post title: “My Boyfriend’s Back” from Jersey Boys

I’m back!

Well…Sort of.  I realize it’s been nearly two months since I last posted, at which time I shared that this blog was created for a class and would eventually continue, after final grades had been posted.  Since that time, I have been trying to come up with a plan for this blog.  Do I really want it to continue?  Do I really have the time or the energy to write for it?

You see, I’m a perfectionist.  My writing is generally long, thought out, and personal – not quite right for a blog.  On the other hand, I’ve always dreamed about running a successful blog.  During this past semester, I searched WordPress many times, looking for blogs that interested me and leaving comments, hoping to making blogging buddies.  I’d love to be someone with a whole bunch of blog followers, both here and on social media.  Perhaps that’s selfish or arrogant, but I think it would be fun to create a community. 

I digress.  I think I have settled on a plan for this blog, although I am sure it will evolve, just like anything else.  

I’m going to keep it.  I’m sure my posts won’t be regular, because I’m a busy person who likes to live life away from the computer screen when possible.  I’m trying to not have a lot of expectations for myself.

However, some thing are going to change.  

I want to be able to post whatever I want on my blog – I don’t want to have to stick to one theme.  I have many other interests beyond the Broadway community – although I love it so, so dearly.  I want to be able to post about Disney, and my college adventures, and anything that might be going on in my life.  Having freedom to write about anything would encourage me to post more often.  

Problem: I have to figure out, technically, how I want this to work.  I love the blog title: “The View From Duffy Square” – I worked hard to come up with it, and when I did, I instantly fell in love.  I want to have it be its own section, or page, on my blog, with its title.  Disney posts will have their own page, school posts will have a page, and there will be a catchall page.  I have to do a little research on the WordPress help pages and figure out how to set things up the way I’d like.  

In the meantime, know that I’M BACK!  And I’m not going anywhere.  🙂

    Great to have you back! You don’t have to always post on Broadway. I don’t either. There are a couple of posts dedicated to non-Disney and non-Broadway things on my blog as well, which have a completely different audience. You might garner more followers with a diverse range of topics.

      Thanks! I was hoping you’d see this! I am going to make my blog title more broad and then create categories, and I think that will make me feel better!
